Grading: Advanced Integration Level

Policy 540.50

Policy Statement

Clinical rotations of greater than 2 weeks in length under the supervision of the Robert Larner, M.D. College of Medicine at The University of Vermont faculty during Advanced Integration curriculum level are graded as Honors/Pass/Fail. Rotations of 2 weeks, and all research and reading electives are graded as Pass/Fail.

Only UVM faculty can award a grade of Honors. Extramural rotations are therefore graded as Pass/Fail; however, an unofficial notation may be placed in the transcript for extramural honors as “UH.” Students are responsible for ensuring that extramural preceptors return their grades in a timely fashion.
